Since rc2-1 is broken beyond any operation, I put in rc1-1 which had worked.
Results: 1. Got the spreadsheets back. 2. Can read and edit a document only if I run soffice.bin explicitely. 3. Can export and reimport RTF but cannot any other RTF from before. 4. Can read doc files using soffice.bin explicitely. If I have not had any crashes yet running openoffice, doc files will open with this. How do I procede to get the downgrade working the way it was before .... ?? BTW. Yes, I know, it's "unstable" but a simple read file, do something, save, reread and such should be the minimum regression test for any "office" product, don't you think? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
